Hair is a musical based on the book by James Rado and Gerome Ragni and the music of the play is given by Galt McDermott.

The play basically revolves around a long haired group of hippies who are working against the recruitment of Vietnam War. The play has the element of illegal use of drugs, sexuality and nudity, pacifism and environmentalism, religion and astrology, literary themes and symbolism. It has a number of beautiful songs and some of them started being used as the Anti Vietnam War Peace Movement. The play was not without the criticism and controversy for the use of depictions of illegal drugs, sexuality, nudity, the musical blasphemy and its disrespect for the American flag. The tribal musical love story has made its way back into the Broadway with the same wonderful story and some awesome tracks like "good morning star shine", "hair", "Aquarius" and "let the sun shine in".
